hello, I have a requirement of pressed cds of debian or ubuntu server. actually I tried searching the shipit web site for ubuntu server cd but they don't ship server cd. is there a way to contact ubuntu and ask for server cd with printed cover? actually I have a project on my hands where I am going to implement an erp system. the customer even after reading the gpl is not convinced that the cd I am giving will hold the same value. the old man believes that as a director he can't take a risk on this. just like the ubuntu desktop cd I gave him, he feel that if the cd for server also has a similar make and the same printed cover, it will be licensed. now I am not finding ubuntu server cds like this. so may be I will choose debian cd set. by the way I want to try out debian installation. may be jtd will help me out with instructions for tellingthe installer to install 2.6 kernel and using priority as medium so that I get to choose which components I can install. I think there are some kernel parameters to be given? regards. Krishnakant.

That server CD is known as ``Alternate Install CD''. Shipit does not offer alternate cds, so you might not be able to get pressed cds.

In that case, you might need to get the graphics and print the cds yourself. Folks at Ubuntu-In mailing list might be able to help you in this regard.
now I am not finding ubuntu server cds like this. so may be I will choose debian cd set. by the way I want to try out debian installation.
IN that case, you might need to get hold of pressed Debian Sarge 3.1 DVD which was distributed with LinuxForYou a couple of months back.

You need to pass ``linux26'' for 2.6 kernel.

BIG FAT WARNING: The quality of LFY dvds is pathetic. I have four of them (suse linux edition and debian edition), all have developed concentric striations, just lying in cd boxes. So make copies of any efy dvd u may want to preserve on the first day. Both were pickd up at dadar station, were free of scratches and worked initially.
